What is the best FREE way to advertise the great Santa Fe Trail Horse Race coming in September 2007?

Today’s Bible asked:


I’ve added the info to the “Interactive Santa Fe Trail” web page at http://www.kansasheritage.org/research/sft/index.html and a Santa Fe Trail email group, but think there MUST be better ways to find actual horse owners who might be interested in signing up to participate in the race to see how fast a team of horses can go from Santa Fe, NM to Independence, MO.

In 1848 Francis X. Aubry won a $1,000 bet by making the trip in 136 hours (5 days and 16 hours). Six of his horses didn’t survive the trip, but I’m not sure how many horses he started with.
